Why Select Items?
| The reason designers will select items is because when one runs a report or an action (such as creating a purchase order), if any items are selected then only those selected items will be included in the report or the action. |
| For example, in the screen shot below Items 4, 5, and 6 have been selected. A possible reason for this is that the user wants to create in invoice with just these item. Or they want to do the action of "Flag to Invoice". Selecting items gives you the ability to have more control over what appears on reports or is acted on. |
| For more information about the impact of selections and reports click: How Reports Work. Actions work the same way as reports in terms of how selections work. You can read more about how actions work here: How Actions Work. |

Unselecting Items

POWER USER TIP : A good use for Selecting All items is when you want all items except one or two. So you will Select All, then Unselect just the items you don't need on the report or action.
